Aberdeen Football Club is playing a team from the Faeroes at Pittodrie tonight and the visitors should more than feel at home in the ludicrous conditions we are having to endure. Day after day of depressing featureless gloom accompanied by horror 13C highs just like typical summer weather in those bleak, isolated and remote islands 
Another staggeringly bad 3-day spell since Tuesday with essentially no sunshine at all. The last 15 days have been diabolical in a way that only post-2006 summers can be. 30.9 hours of sun since the 13th which compares with 32.2 hours during the same period of last November. That was an extremely wet and dull November as well so it's beyond comprehension that we can now expect summer weather to be even worse than a bad November. Taking into account the differing daylight hours would make the comparison even more preposterous
No summer in my life until 2007 produced anything this dire. It's just unreal. 10 out of the last 15 days have produced no more than half-an-hours sun. Only one August in my records had that many in its entirety and that was 2011 which I would rate as the worst August of my lifetime but this revolting month is causing me to reassess that. It's also the most that any month this year has recorded so far
Could be that the final week fails to even reach 15C which has only happened once before in August in the past 60 years and that was in the ridiculously cold 1986. Even that month, despite the cold​, was nowhere near as dull as this grim, gruesome catastrophe. August 2008 didn't have this much soul destroying featureless cloud either despite having less sunshine.
The frequency with which we are seeing spells of weather so bad, that they should only belong in sub-polar regions, is alarming and concerning. There simply aren't any antidepressants strong enough to make this seem remotely tolerable
Aberdeen: The only place that misses out on everything
